I tried this recipe. But it was too soft. Bottom and sides stick to the baking dish and inside is not cooked. How can we make it crispier? Should we add more chickpea flour?

I'm always amazed at how the flavor of chickpea flour can change after cooking. I hate it out of the sack, and yet here (with minimal ingredients) it comes out tasting almost buttery! I had to try this when I saw it. It's just so oddball. And I didn't have much in the house, but I did have these ingredients. Added a few tbsp chopped onions, otherwise made exactly to recipe. I don't really know how to rate it! It is definitely tastey, but in an odd way. I enjoyed it for lunch, but I don't think I'd make it again (mine never did become cuttable either, very crumbly) I would just say give it a try!
